I -was- wondering about why they kept the merman to begin with, but I'm happy to see there's a reason that makes sense.
(I also kinda hope you can set him free and/or run away with him at the end. lol
Guess we'll have to wait and see.)
I like the mereman. And I'm curious about him. ^_^
Actually, this game makes me feel like I've somehow stepped into the charming world of Petshop of Horrors.
(If anyone remember that manga series.)
I really hope there is a way to romance him.
I am sure that someone as cunning as he seem to be can understand the benefit of seducing someone to help him escape.
(Especially after what happened.)
Whether that ends well or tragic in five different way, well...
Either way, I'd love to be able help him escape. ^_^
(Although it doesn't seem to be a magical world, so I guess if you fall in love you'll end up as that weirdo who lives alone in a cabin by the coast far from people just so you can spend more time with him. lol
And that's the best-case scenario. If he doesn't just eat you. lol
But people have befriended wild animals before, and he seems more sentient than any animal.)
Either way, I love this game! ^_^
...in part because I love the ocean and everything in it.
And meremen. lol
The demo was too short to be a full demo, so I'm assuming this is still a work in progress.
I'm looking forward to see what the finished work looks like. ^_^
